Question
i'm at an age where the atheists that i try to witness to are "educated" about their beliefs...or lack thereof, they constantly qoute the skeptics bible and poke holes in almost all the passages and truths in the bible... the skeptics bible even questions the authors of the bible....

...i need historical proof/facts supporting the bible so that i may reinforce my own beliefs and so that i can "spar" with educated atheists

...any reputable website is preferred along with books and other stuff.....

Answer
Richard,
I forgot to mention that I have an article at http://bible-truth.org/Howwegot.htm   "How We Got the Bible"  on my web site.   It is written for a general audience, but may contain good points you can research further.
  Also I an an Apologetics page at http://bible-truth.org/apologeticspage.html  which deals with many doctrinal issues.   One on the Trinity is reported by many to help them understand who God is... others may help too.
God bless you as you seek to win the lost.
Remember...

  Ephesians 6:10-18  "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.  Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.  Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints"
